Welcome to the Powell Human Milk Lab!

The overarching goals of our research program are to understand the human milk immune response to infection and vaccination, and ultimately, to design maternal vaccines aimed to enhance this response. We currently have several active projects aimed to fill knowledge gaps about human milk immunology and the milk immune response to infectious disease and vaccination. All projects can be further read about here
